The sister of disgraced footballer Adam Johnson was today seen arriving at his home alongside a van full of wine, as family celebrations continue following his release from prison.
Faye Johnson, who defended her brother with a #TeamAJ Facebook campaign after his 2016 conviction, was pictured being driven to the 31-year-old footballer's seven-bedroom mansion, located in an upmarket village in County Durham, this afternoon.
It comes just days after she was seen with 'welcome home balloons', amid reports she had been planning a party for her brother to celebrate his release from prison on Friday.
And also today, a Majestic Wine van was spotted outside the Johnson home - which has a bowling alley, swimming pool and football nets in the back garden.

She is just one of a number of visitors to the former Sunderland winger's home, with his father, Dave Johnson, telling MailOnline on Friday: 'We are glad to have him home.'
Also visible outside the Johnson home today was a police van, with the footballer now subject to strict licence conditions, including keeping in touch with a supervisor and living permanently at his address.
The former Sunderland winger, now 31, served just half of the six-year sentence behind bars. He was jailed for grooming, kissing and touching a 15-year-old fan.
He remains on licence and, as part of his release conditions, he will no longer be permitted to spend time alone with his daughter.
Johnson's seven-bedroom home is said to have a bowling alley, swimming pool and football nets in the back garden.
He lives 100 yards away from his his father and mother, Sonia. His sister Faye also lives in the village.
The home Johnson shared with his ex girlfriend Stacey Flounders and their daughter Ayla at the time of his arrest has since been bought by cricketer Ben Stokes.

Johnson's sister supported him throughout his 2016 trial, and in the months after, launching a campaign to appeal his conviction of child sex offences after grooming a 15-year-old girl.
She also sparked appeals on Facebook and Twitter using the phrase 'Justice for Johnson' and the hashtag #TeamAJ.
But Johnson, who once played for England, now faces an uphill battle to try to resurrect his football career, after all of the football league clubs in the area of his home told the Mail they would not contemplate signing him.
It is understood Johnson had to meet with probation workers yesterday. He has not been issued with a criminal tag but will be subject to strict licence conditions, including keeping in touch with a supervisor and living permanently at his address.
He will only be allowed to take up work if his supervisor approves it, and police will examine any overseas travel plans before he is allowed to leave the UK.
Johnson will also have more stringent conditions under the terms of the sex offenders' register, which he will sign for at least 15 years.
Johnson's ex Stacey Flounders looked happy as she headed to the gym today. She has previously said she is pleased their daughter will see him again

As well as not being permitted to see his daughter or other children unsupervised, he will have to hand over his bank card in order to prevent him accessing paid-for porn sites.
A neighbour said: 'He has been a stupid boy but he has served his time in prison and he's entitled to start again. What he did was very foolish of course but there are much worse crimes committed.'
Children's charity the NSPCC said on Friday that Johnson's case had helped bring about an implementation of laws against grooming.
The charity's Head of Policy Almudena Lara said: 'Johnson bombarded his victim with crude, sexual messages and a gaping loophole meant it was legal for him to do so. He used his explicit messages to groom her, then he went on to meet and sexually assault her.
'After the NSPCC campaigned for Government to fix this dangerous flaw, ministers finally made online grooming illegal in 2017 and now any adult who sends a child sexual messages will feel the full force of the law.
'More than 5,000 grooming crimes have since been recorded by police in England and Wales. Now people like Johnson can no longer get away with sending school children sexual messages.'

Johnson was jailed at Bradford Crown Court in 2016 for engaging in sexual activity with a besotted 15-year-old fan in 2016.
He admitted kissing the girl but denied her claim that he touched her inside her pants and that she then performed oral sex on him.
A jury found him guilty of sexual activity with a child in relation to 'digital penetration' but cleared him of the same offence relating to the oral sex.
He had already admitted another charge of sexual activity with a child in relation to kissing and also of grooming the girl.
The judge said Johnson had lied repeatedly, referring to the controversy over whether he delayed his guilty pleas to enable him to continue his £60,000-a-week career with Sunderland.
His trial heard that he deleted 800 messages between him and his victim, who he is also banned from contacting.

Johnson will now have to wait 15 years before he can apply to come off the sex offenders register.
He has also been told that football leagues clubs will not go near him after Sportsmail contacted the clubs of his local area in Durham.
Not one of the League One or League Two clubs within a daily commute of Johnson's home in County Durham said they would consider speaking to him.
One chief executive said he could not envisage any Football League club offering the 31-year-old a way back into the game given the nature of his conviction and the backlash it would cause.
Sportsmail also discovered that Johnson will be denied the chance of a payday in China because of strict visa requirements to work in the country.
In a leaked video from his time in prison, he said that he had more hope of reviving his playing career abroad, and the likes of the Chinese Super League have been mooted.
Back in January Johnson's sister Faye tweeted that she 'can finally say my brother is coming home this year'.
Johnson is set to remain under licence conditions until the conclusion of his full jail term in 2022.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
